My X boss died doing a (too low) pass for the crowd in his T-33A at an air show and during a barrel roll struck the ground.
Through medical inspection of remaining body parts it was determined that he had advanced emphysema.
He didn't smoke......
He did however live life to the fullest and is the envy of many who knew him for his zest for life and fulfilling that zest.
I've been watching the Fox News coverage, and I didn't come away with the same impression. I believe the topic of the thread was your favorite Carson Joke, not your favorite anti-Fox News rant. Too bad about your boss but I suppose he shouldn't have been doing barrel rolls with advanced emphysema. Did he have a favorite joke?
